Preform Technologies moves to expanded facility; adds extrusion blow molding to capability

Preform Technologies, LLC is moving to a newly-built 40,000 sq. ft. facility in Swanton, OH to add extrusion blow molding capability and accommodate an increased demand for preforms.

This content was written and submitted by the supplier. It has only been modified to comply with this publication’s space and style.

Part of Plastic Technologies, Inc.'s family of companies, Preform Technologies is known for its ability to produce technically challenging, smaller volume polyethylene terephthalate (PET) preforms for food and personal care applications.

“Adding extrusion blow molding production is a natural evolution of our niche manufacturing expertise. “We are going to be focusing on difficult projects that can benefit from our unique capability,” said, Jim Sheely, president, Preform Technologies.

Because of its ability to work with challenging colors and shapes, the company views itself as an ideal development partner for innovative PET bottle launches which push the manufacturing envelope.

The new facility is located within seven miles of its previous 7500 sq. ft. location. Expanding to more than five times the former size will enable both production and warehousing to now be housed under one roof. The new facility at 11362 S. Airfield Road, Swanton, OH 43558 is expected to be fully operational by August 31st.
